Hey there,
I am truly sorry that Melissa Doyle has been replaced by Michael Usher. Melissa has been and is the best there is!! I loved to see her on TV and I enjoyed her beautiful persona immensely. She is good to look at and she is good to listen to. No I’m not happy and I will not be watching her replacement or news on Chanel 7. Who makes this decisions people? Whoever it is, he or she should be removed from Chanel 7 pronto. Goodbye people!!
